Religious Zionists of America records

This collection primarily includes material prior to the merger of the two organizations and contains documents concerning their sub-entities and affiliates. Information regarding Mizrachi’s Youth and Education Department, National Education Committee, and Education and Expansion Fund are also available. Types of materials encompass souvenir journals, publications (Yiddish and English), youth leader’s guides, cultural guides, manuals, newsletters, pamphlets, brochures, activity and annual reports, plays, press releases, convention and event invitations, a musical score, and a children’s Hebrew primer. Of interest is the issue of New Horizons, published by the National Committee for Unity of Religious Zionism that describes the merger. Also of appeal is a 1952 souvenir program for the Hapoel Hamizrachi of Boston that honors and includes an address by Jerusalem Mayor S.Z. Shragai.
